When Zhang Boyan was at the Netherworld Spring Sect, he did not take in half a disciple. After becoming a foreign official under Zhang Yan, he thought that if he reincarnated in the future, at worst he could rely on the protection of Zhao Nether Mansion. It might not be a bad way out, so he never thought about it again.
Now that he heard that Zhang Yan had taken the initiative to find a disciple for him, and that his words were quite extraordinary, he was surprised at first. Then, he was a little moved. He replied, "If the Manor Head chooses a disciple for me, then he must be a good one."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Good or bad, it's up to me. We cultivators also pay attention to the fate of master and disciple. This matter still needs Zhang Zhang to decide."
He said to Jing You, "Go bring Zhao Yang here."
Jing You responded and quickly left the cave, riding the wind down the mountain. He came and went very quickly. Zhang Boyan had only talked a little about his experiences outside when he had already returned and brought Zhao Yang in.
After entering the cave, Zhao Yang hurriedly knelt down to pay his respects.
When Zhang Boyan saw this, his eyes shone with a strange light. He stood up and walked forward, reaching out to touch the back of Zhao Yang's neck, not opening his mouth to speak.
His appearance was extremely ferocious. His hands were rough and hard like an old tree. When he gripped the joints, there was a cracking sound. It was rare that Zhao Yang was not afraid at all. His calm appearance did not seem like a ten-year-old boy at all.
Zhang Boyan took two steps back, a green light flashing in his eyes. He snickered and said, "This talent is not something a normal person can obtain. Xiantian is already rare and valuable, and he has been soaked in good spirit liquid since he was young. All his meridians are unobstructed. This child's elders must be among my cultivators."
Zhang Yan nodded and said with a smile, "Zhang Zhang has a good eye. This child's surname is Zhao Yang. His father was originally a cultivator of this continent's Fu Yang Sect. "
Zhang Boyan had roamed the East Victory Continent for more than ten years and had naturally heard of the Fu Yang Sect's name. His thoughts changed and he asked, "Manor Head, do you have anything to say?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I don't need to explain the reason behind it. Fellow Daoist can ask Zhao Yang later and you'll know."
Zhao Yang was very intelligent. Seeing this, he had more or less guessed that Zhang Boyan was the master that the Sect Leader had found for him. He knelt down and said, "Disciple greets Master."
Zhang Boyan laughed. He saw that Zhao Yang was very quick-witted and was very satisfied. Zhao Yang was still unable to cultivate inner Qi due to his age. There was nothing strange about it. However, once they embarked on the path of cultivation … He cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks, Manor Head. I want this disciple."
Zhang Yan said to Jing You, "I still have something to say to Zhang Zhang. Take Zhao Yang down and find a cave for him to stay in. "
Jing You stepped forward and patted Zhao Yang's shoulder, saying, "Junior apprentice-brother Zhao, come with me."
Zhao Yang bowed to the two people in the cave again, then stood up and followed them out.
Outside the cave, he lowered his head and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior apprentice-brother Jing, I have just entered the sect and don't know many rules. In the future, I will need senior apprentice-brother's guidance."
Jing You thought that this junior apprentice-brother was very sensible. He shouldn't look down on him because of his young age, so he might as well do him a favor, saying, "In the future, you are not an outsider, so you don't need to be so formal. Although Zhenren is a guest of Master, Master has always treated him with respect. If you follow Zhenren, you will also have to return to the sect in the future. You have to grasp this opportunity."
Zhao Yang carefully asked, "Senior apprentice-brother, are we going to leave this place?"
Jing You smiled mysteriously, saying, "You will know when the time comes."
Inside the cave, Zhang Yan said, "Zhang Zhang, it's good that you are back. In a few days, I will go to the eastern boundary of the House of God and open up a Heavenly Furnace of Earth Fire for the sect to forge weapons. It will take a few months to go back and forth. When I am not here, you will be in charge of the sect for me."
Zhang Boyan immediately agreed. After sitting for another half an hour, he said goodbye and left.
Zhang Yan then called Zhao Ge over and told him many things. When there was nothing else to arrange, he left the cave, riding the strong wind, and headed east.
This time, because the Heavenly Furnace of Earth Fire was not in the sect, he needed to find a safe and secluded place. Fortunately, Zhang Boyan had been here before and remembered the terrain. So this time, he only needed to follow the map.
Zhang Yan did not use his sword ray, but rode the wind in the clouds. After three days, the terrain in front of him bulged and a high ground appeared. It was shaped like a square table, facing a high cliff in the southwest. The two were separated by a ravine. Below the ravine was luxuriant grass, and everything was greyish yellow.
A few miles to his right, there was another scenery. A gurgling mountain spring seeped out from the cliff, and mist filled the air. Even from far away, he could feel the coolness. On the hill, there was a banyan tree that was a thousand feet tall. Its crown was unusually large, and its branches were luxuriant. The old vines at its base were full of fallen leaves. The east of the house was mostly barren land, but this place was very unique.
As he was flying, a greyish white circle of light suddenly flew out from under the banyan tree. A female cultivator came out from inside. Her face was like a hibiscus, her skin was white, and her body was curvy. She wore a peach-colored long dress, and a light muslin draped over her shoulders. She held a bamboo basket in her hand, which was covered with a red cloth. The woman seemed to have come out coincidentally, and when she saw Zhang Yan's light, her expression tensed. She did not say anything, but looked at him with a bit of vigilance.
Zhang Yan suddenly remembered that Zhang Boyan seemed to have met the disciple of the heretical sect here. In order to avoid the pursuit of the five great sects, he was living in seclusion here. Looking at the woman's appearance, he felt that she was similar to the description, so he greeted her and asked, "Is it Lady Che in front?"
The woman took a few steps back and frowned, "Who are you? I haven't seen any guests for a long time, so where did you hear my name? "
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I'm the person in charge of the West Godly House Immortal City. I happened to pass by here, and I heard Zhang mention Lady Che before, so I know you."
When Lady Che heard him introduce himself, she seemed to be relieved. She put her hand on her chest and said, "You scared me, I thought it was some enemy who came looking for me. So it's Sect Master Zhang. I heard Zhang Boyan mention you before. Your Sect Master Hanyuan is really interesting. Why don't you stay in the immortal city and come to this barren mountain instead?"
When Zhang Yan saw that she was in a hurry, he smiled and asked, "May I know where you are going in such a hurry, Fellow Che?"
Lady Che was obviously in a good mood, so she didn't hide anything and said, "A few days ago, I received a letter from my sister saying that the Sect Master of Zhong Tai Sect is recruiting cultivators from all over the world. Even those from the heretical sects are welcome. Since I have some cultivation, I want to give it a try. It's better than staying in this damned place and not seeing a single person."
Zhang Yan cupped his fist and smiled, "Then I wish you a pleasant journey, Fellow Daoist."
Lady Che also smiled and said, "I'm in a hurry to meet my sister. Fellow Daoist Zhang, I'll take my leave now. We'll meet again if fate allows it."
When she finished, she bowed and turned into a ray of rainbow light, flying into the sky.
Zhang Yan took a few glances at her and pondered for a moment. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, he stirred up a gust of wind and disappeared into the distance.
Tens of thousands of miles to the north of the Divine House Mountain, there was an island that occupied an area of ten thousand hectares. This place used to be the palace of the Celestial Sieve Sect, but it was later occupied by the Demonic Python Tribe from Dong Hua and became their abode.
The scenery of this island was extremely unusual. The island was surrounded by dikes, and fine white sand was spread out in a gentle slope, encircling a lake. The lake was clear and crystalline, and at this moment, there were thousands of giant pythons rolling and playing in the water. When the sun shone on their brightly colored scales, it would occasionally emit light.
If there were mystic cultivators watching from a hundred miles away, they would see a towering demonic aura rising into the sky like smoke, condensing and not dispersing, covering the entire ocean.
On one side of the lake, there were two cultivators standing. The one in the lead was around forty years old, with phoenix eyes, a jade-like face and a long beard. He wore a black cloak with silver threads, a pair of cloud-climbing shoes, a wind-repelling immortal crown, and a string of beads hanging down from his temples. In his hand, he held a three-foot-long jade scepter.
This person was the tribe leader of the Python Tribe, Luo Jiangyu. After losing the battle of the Three Pools, the Python Tribe moved to this Beimo Ocean World, and the old demon, Luo Mengze, was cultivating in seclusion and didn't care about the outside world, so he took over the position of tribe leader.
At this moment, he was staring at the lake beneath his feet. After a while, he nodded and said, "This time, there are a total of thirty-two tribe members who can transform, and seven of them can choose to cultivate the mystic technique of the Qi path. This is more than half of the previous time."
The person standing beside him was called Luo Dongchuan, and he was his tribe brother. This person was tall and sturdy, with a thick beard and a wide face. His eyes were full of spirit, and he was full of spirit.
However, even though he had also cultivated the Yuanying technique, his cultivation was far from Luo Jiangyu's. At this moment, he added, "Fortunately, the Celestial Sieve Sect has accumulated a lot of resources. They filled this lake with spiritual herbs and nourished it for a hundred years. The children can use this to refine their bodies day and night, and save tens of years of cultivation."
For a demonic cultivator to transform, even if they were talented, they would usually need more than a hundred years of cultivation before they could cultivate the mystic technique. Previously in the Dong Hua Continent, the disciples of the Python Tribe, other than the main bloodline, had to rely on hard work. Until they came here, because they occupied the Celestial Sieve Sect, even the savings of thousands of years were all given to them. That was why they took out such a large sum of money to refine the whole lake into a medicinal pool for all the disciples to cultivate.
Luo Jiangyu looked for a while, then suddenly turned his head and asked, "I have been in seclusion for more than ten years. Have you found out the origin of the person who killed the two Yu brothers?
Luo Dongchuan was taken aback. He was caught off guard and stammered, "Other than that person's surname is Zhang, and he came from another continent, I don't know anything else."
Luo Jiangyu frowned and said, "Before I went into seclusion, I ordered you to investigate. After so many years, have you still not found anything?"
Luo Dongchuan said in a low voice, "Big brother, after this person came to the Divine House Mountain, he did not come out. Even the disciples rarely saw him. It is doubly difficult for us to investigate."
In fact, what he said was just an excuse. The Yu brothers were demonic cultivators that were subdued after they came to the Northern Sea Domain. Not only were they not very smart, they usually relied on their copper skin and iron bones and were very arrogant. If it were not for the fact that the two brothers were Yuanying cultivators, he would have killed them long ago. This time, their deaths were exactly what he wanted, so why would he bother to find out who killed them? But now that Qu Changzhi was missing, he felt that it was a pity that this lead was broken.
Seeing his expression, Luo Jiangyu snorted and did not continue to ask. He said, "Now that the Zhong Tai Faction has opened their mountain gate, the people of the Python Tribe can openly go to the Dong Sheng Continent. This matter is especially important. You should pay attention to it. For the time being, don't worry about the Divine House Mountain."
